Lordt help me I am doing. Concept Art.

I think I figured out how the hell the cloak is going to work on his body but that pose is NOT the way his body will be rotated in the sprite so I have more work to do -.-

Love commanders like Golbez: he gives 2 outputs for diff. inputs. You get to solve the puzzle + provide both inputs: create artifacts and put big critters in your GY. Finding the cards with those intersections is the best part of deckbuilding

Okay, I have a confession to make, I did go back and pet the art. TOUCHUPS ARE FUN SOMETIMES. Gimme your honest yay/nay on this Li'l Sparky:
